Anything you want to get off your chest?This is the place.
Strict Confidentiality Assured
The forum will NEVER be the same again no matter who takes over, how can it be when Craig is gone? no-one could run it like him, I don’t care who takes over the forum as I won’t be around anyway so it’s neither here nor there with me but I do dislike Davies and I have cause to, none of you know what went on so I’d prefer those to stop trying to point a finger at me because I’ve had a dig at him, I’ll sort it all out some day believe me and I’ll post somewhere and let you all know.
I have been reading this passage for three
years waiting for aome enlightenment.
It’s written by a canonized saint
the late J ST. JIM of this parish.
I am deeply troubled.
A saint wouldn’t lie would he
or speak ill of the dead ?
He tells me to believe him
but in other parts of the scripture
some day is explained as a period
in the near future.Gamble,since you told me that the thread which your post relates to was saved–I’ve been having a little read of it.I wonder how this forum would be today if ‘the log’ had gained ownership?
btw, I called this forum a parish in the ‘Mysterious Disappearance’ thread.Every parish must have a church,hence this thread.
Never expected any visitors…Well,maybe Grimes.
Nice of you to pop in
Had the log gained ownership
well some would have logged off.
J ST JIM would have stayed to argue,
and there would have been tensions,
but this site would have survived.
He might not have posted.The log maintaned that TRF would be
unchanged bar a banner for his exchange.
Backandlay was run on a shoestring
a shoestring cut by the powers that
rewarded the bankers.The log was trenchant, determined
and to a large extent inflexible.
He changed through his mammoth writing.
I was sorry his 1% exchange with three
or four low budget angels did not survive.
It was a good idea, however had Davies
been more vigorous, and invested more, he
might have come good with it.
Who knows ?I never gave him any advice
apart from decimal odds,
which he argued about until forced to change.
The site was modelled on his image
rather than what was needed.
I found the green background
rather tawdry and uninspiring.
Had he modelled on the old FLUTTER
with its large pink and blue betting buttons
he would have attracted a lot more.
A lot more zing was needed.
Hills is god was a good addition
but he needed mountains of god to energize it.
I think it was £10000 pounds that killed
him off and his future little pension pot,
very sad.It is sad that little green[/color:3s7o1dw7] never made it big.I think he’s an ok guy,from what I’ve seen of him on many forums.His main failing,imo,was that he could never admit to being wrong about anything.He always had to have the last word.Maybe this is why some didn’t like him?
I’d like to see his words again, but even if Corm offered the olive branch I’m not sure he’d take it.He seems to be banned from most places,but he could post on betfair where he was C A T.The fact that he didn’t bother much may mean he’s bored of board life.I do feel that this is the place where he felt truly at home,though.
Dem rivers run deep
even at this renewal
time of year the bells
don’t jingle.
They clang their might
to ring out the big
ol’ heavy fight.Not an olive branch
more like a boot
thrown with force
at a quickly snapping
cat flap.The three angels would meet
with him down the pub.
Not just to discuss the
the risk averse dark green
just to down some drinks
‘n’ chat a little industry
and be friendly.It was in a pub
many years earlier
that the takeover of Flutter
was first propositioned.
By all accounts it did not
take much alcohol
just a self aggrandisement sandwich
the type often sold in the square mile
before it was re-named the dead pig.Some still talk of it as the great stitch up
and that piggy went in there without his glasses
like David minus his sling
drinking against an adidas shooed Goliath
who threw numbers at him.Others call it the great reckoning
and fair play in correcting the
mimmicking stutter of an imitator
whose boots were over-filled with venture capital,
and were only in it for the beer ‘n crack.Started over a drink
finished over a drink
that was Flutter.son
Wham Bam thank you MaamI’m sorry to interrupt, but is anyone else currently living in an igloo?
…if so, please sign in
are you inuit ?
The church was narrow –
so narrow in fact
that parishioners
had to climb over each other
to reach the altar
and some were then
in dire need
to access the confessionalI’m sorry to interrupt, but is anyone else currently living in an igloo?
…if so, please sign in
I see it’s snowing in places like Haydock and Ascot.It’s even quite chilly down here in glorious Devon.I’m half thinking of putting the heating on.
oh I expect your boiler’s packed up through lack of use
shocking water rates in Devon, enough to turn anyone to drink…are you inuit ?
very good..
and yes, I am – shovelling snow all day
Those poor people on Eurostar…nightmare
This church is a novel place.
Zome’s psychiatrist had energy
but you can’t beat a building
even if there are cabages on the seats
where people should be sitting.
If you are holding a service
on thursday Tor I will try to look in.Strangely I considered igloo
was a reference to the insularity
and prevelance of old testament in here
rather than simply being snowed in.The word has refreshed me
and I would thank you for that Ugly Mare.I have little or no more to write
about Davies apart from to add that
he was a refreshing hands off moderator of the
Flutter forum, years past,
in allowing the mayhem of the
clone wars to bloody the betting parchment
for three weeks.
Certainly the forum and exchange
had an umbilical.I found he was very fair
in rightly banning me after
my falsely owning up to my creation
of the the damaging havoc wreaking clones;
gamble dash gamble space dash
and pacal gamble. The last one escapes
my memory
The dishonesty was worth it
as I took pleasure in sinking a sharp knife
– deep into David Marshall –
the real perpetrator’s pride.I was later re-instated after
an earlier coded message in a post
saved me.
The strange art continued for
a month or two before Davies
pulled the plug.Why I bring up this old history
I cannot quite fathom.
It seems oddly importantThe basic word igloo
has saved me from
from further wanderings
into history.I’m pleased to hear you may put this to bed gamble – let sleeping dogs lie – as it does seem to pain you somewhat. A few skeletons in your cupboard I think by the sound of things, but it’s good to get them aired occasionally.
The person your speak so much of, Mr Davies, I always found a chatty forum-er, I knew little else about him, and can only judge on that basis. I like chatty people
The igloo has grown larger today.

And where did you chat to the Basingstoke Bomber?
He was long gone before you joined here,must have been another forum,yes?
I see Tor
apart from
his interesting question
has made this
a christian edifice
ensuring any service
will be small.I think you slightly misread
my intentions Ugly Mare.Davies is attracted
by bright lights.
He is almost myth
and I have taken such delight
in his earlier plight
and given him extra lift
to watch him like a kiteIt’s all history
so grand
and of far more
interest than
if and how
Cecil’s tiger does
in sand.I have no chip
And where did you chat to the Basingstoke Bomber?

I like chatty people too
sometimes
You seem a Lovely Lady, UM
